Xmas Morning

We started Christmas morning with breakfast and gifts. After our guests went home, Mommy, Gabriel, and Grace caught a nap. Then we went to Grandma and Papa's for dinner. It was a wonderful day. Thank you to everyone for the gifts and the wonderful company. We feel truly blessed to have such a wonderful family. Uncle Brian and Erin look at gifts with Gabe.

Enjoying breakfast before opening gifts

Grace was trying to eat her hands at breakfast. Anything coming out of those, Grace?
Silly, Gabe! Uncle Brian carried Gabriel down the stairs by his feet to see what Santa brought.
Ben watches while Gabe dances around the basement with his life-sized Elmo. Thanks, Uncle Ed and Stacey! Elmo was a hit!

Uncle Brian's first time to hold Grace . . . a true testament to the fact that she's getting bigger.

Dig in, Uncle Ed. Don't be shy!
Grace was a bright-eyed girl on Xmas morning. Grandma took Gracie during breakfast.
